Thought I read that it was a copy of the Peseux 260 movement and has been mentioned a few times on the forum.

Not sure on running condition (don't own any), but large balance

Think this Google searched one was spiced up to make it nicer. Blued (chemical treated) screws and red paint in the stars

Nobody snapping them up, refinishing and adding to higher end watches, so guessing overall quality so so and not worth the effort…

Bulova Right Angle, but not listed as such. Just happen to notice it with 27 minutes left and $26.00.

Little wear, so so dial and not running. Esnipe bid of $62.00

Sold for $144

Fav model I've never owned, but not that one at that price

Local large food outlet sells sells a large variety of pork hotdogs and 3 beef

Obviously not selling the pork all that well as they're always on sale and beef never

Grabbed a pack of pork by accident and not that good. Ate them, but tossed the rest

Given the choice

What you you choose?

Someone up the street tossed out a skateboard that seem to be in good condition. Not the fanciest or newest. Beginners board.

Took it home and cleaned it up a little and oiled the wheels.

Stood on it and tried a little push and it just didn't feel right. Wasn't comfortable on it and felt I was going to injure myself so got off it.

I used to build and skateboard a lot when I was younger and stopped when I was about 30, but at 67. Maybe not the smartest thing to do and play around with...
